YouTube Video Editor for Golf Channel Launch

I'm a professional golfer and online golf coach based in Tokyo, Japan, currently documenting my return to competitive golf with the goal of qualifying for the Japan Tour (JGTO) in 19 days. I'm launching a YouTube channel that blends the journey, the training, and the coaching — and I need an editor who gets the golf content space and knows how to make things look and feel exceptional. The Channel Five content series rotating weekly: The Journey — documentary-style, day-in-the-life, travel, the return to pro golf The Practice — range sessions, drills, what I'm working on and why The Method — coaching and instruction content for the viewer's game The Gym — golf fitness and conditioning (~2x/month) The Round — playing a round with a celebrity or notable guest (~every 6 weeks) Episodes run 20–40 minutes. Cadence: 1 episodes per fortnight. Reference Channels Please watch these before applying — this is the feel and standard I'm going for: - The Lads - The Quiet Fairway - Taco Golf (@tacogolf) - Sam Heung Min Golf (@SamHeungMin) What I Need From You - Full episode editing (colour, audio, music, titles, transitions) - Instagram Reels/clips cut from each episode (2–4 clips per video) - Understanding of what makes a golf clip perform on short-form - Thumbnail creation (or willingness to work with a designer on this) - Consistent turnaround — ideally within 3–4 days of receiving raw footage Ideal Candidate - Has edited golf or sports lifestyle content before (please share examples) - Understands pacing — this is not fast-cut energy, it's cinematic but engaging - Comfortable working remotely and asynchronously across time zones (I'm in Tokyo) - Experience cutting long-form YouTube into short-form social clips is a must Send me 2–3 examples of your best golf or sports edits. Tell me which of the reference channels resonates most with you and why. That answer tells me a lot
